MEMPHIS, Tennessee (Ticker) -- The venue may have changed, but
the result was the same: The Orlando Magic blew out the Memphis
Grizzlies.

Tracy McGrady scored 25 points and added 10 rebounds and seven
assists despite sitting out the fourth quarter as the Magic
crushed the Grizzlies for the second time this season and ninth
game in a row, 119-103.

The game was much more lopsided than the final score indicated.
It was very similar to the Magic's 113-71 waxing of Memphis in
Orlando on December 3, the second-biggest home victory in
franchise history.

In this one, Mike Miller had 11 points in the first quarter to
stake the Magic to a 41-17 lead. Orlando led by as many as 33
points in the second quarter and took a 69-44 advantage into
halftime.

"Anytime you can jump on a team on the road early, it's great,"
Miller said. "It feels good and sometimes it carries throughout
the game. It was a matter of getting going. Sometimes to get the
team going you got to get yourself going first."

"When Mike gets off to a good start, as a team we usually do
pretty well," Orlando coach Doc Rivers said.

Memphis, which played without injured forwards Shane Battier
(strained left groin) and Stromile Swift (flu), got no closer
than 15 points in the second half.

"It worked to our advantage that they didn't have all their
players," McGrady said. "I looked at the injury report and it
looked like their whole team was on it."

Troy Hudson contributed 18 points and seven assists for the
Magic, who improved to 11-1 all-time against the Grizzlies.
Miller finished with 16 for Orlando, which had lost three of its
last four contests.

Rookie Pau Gasol led Memphis with 26 points and a season-high 17
rebounds. Fellow first-year players Will Solomon and Antonis
Fotsis added season highs of 23 and 21 points, respectively, for
the Grizzlies, who have lost three in a row since a season-high
three-game winning streak.

"In the third quarter, we came out and played Grizzlies
basketball," Solomon said. "We showed what we could do. It just
wasn't enough after we got behind by so much early. It's tough
to come back from that far down."

"They played well," Memphis coach Sidney Lowe said of his
reserves. "Fotsis, (Brevin) Knight and Solomon really tried to
hold off the shooters. But the first quarter was really what
hurt us."

Orlando took the lead for good at 6-4 on a reverse layup by
Darrell Armstrong with 9:16 left in the first quarter. The
Magic's advantage reached double digits at 16-6 on a layup by
Horace Grant 2 1/2 minutes later, and the Grizzlies never got
within single digits thereafter.

The Magic shot 52 percent overall (45-of-87) and held the
Grizzlies to 43 percent (37-of-86). Orlando made 56 percent from
the arc (9-of-16), while Memphis made just 29 percent (5-of-17).

"We're scoring a lot of points right now," Rivers said. "It's
all off movement and guys are really shooting the ball. We had
35 assists -- that's pretty impressive."

Orlando had a 35-21 advantage in assists and outscored Memphis
in the paint, 42-32.

"I don't know what it is," Rivers said. "Unfortunately for them,
I don't think it's matchups. When we come out of the box making
shots, its very difficult to guard us. We're really hard to
stop."
